Recently I purchased a used tablet. Samsung sm-t377p obviously they reset it etc. And I cant set it up. Bought it off of Craigslist met the people at Safeway now they don't answer my calls. ;( C I tried all the tricks posted on you tube. Then I moved into using Odin to flash with stock ROM from SamMobile. On first attempt I got the message custom binary error frp lock. So I tried a different stock ROM for same device with a different build date. Boom it went through got the green light from odin. The tablet resets it says updating apps etc. But no matter how many times I do this flash it I still get the. This system was reset please provide the login information used etc etc
Sounds like you will need to enlist the help of someone with a tool like the z3x or Octopus box. I have a z3x, but don't have the software to allow remote access for it. Plenty of people do on eBay.
Please help me, i have a hard bricked SM-T377P, if you have one in hands you can help me to unbrick mine, it will take only 2 minutes! Here is my thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/help-sm-t377p-hard-bricked-debrick-img-t3711889
Thankssssssss!

Hello all,
A friend of mine has a galaxy note 2 from AT&T. I'm not clear as to what exactly he did but he says he had it unlocked and had custom firmware on his phone and the phone did an update on its own and locked up, but by looking up on the Internet all signs point to a soft brick. The phone only turns on and displays firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again. My dumb as volunteered to help him as I thought how hard could this be? Anyway Kies failed to help. Secondly I followed the instructions on here as far as downloading Odin, downloaded stock firmware, downloaded Samsung drivers. I plug it in a all appears good in Odin. Mp5 file checks OK and once it starts running there is even a progress bar on the phone showing its downloading but once it gets to the end it fails every time. The screen on the phone displays
Odin Mode
Product name sgh-I317
Current Binary Samsung official
Current status: custom
Knox warranty void: 1
RP SWREV: A3
SW REV: invalid magic string
Any help would be appreciate I've almost had it with attempting to help. He apparently didn't know what he was doing now I obviously don't know what I'm doing.

Sounds like you are trying to install a version of the firmware that is older than the one that was on there. What is the build version that you are trying? What step is it failing at in Odin? I'd recommend getting the newest version of 4.4.2 to avoid the risk of trying to downgrade.
Odin fails right at the end. I see a green progress bar on the phone as well as on my pc screen. I'm at work right now so I'm not too sure as to exactly what or where it fails. What firmware do you recommend I attempt to place on it? Thanks for your reply also, I appreciate it.

Which one do I pick?
Ok...update....
After using Odin to put this firmware on AT&T UCUCNE5 i317 Stock ODIN Note 2 the phone actually rebooted when finished and seemed like everything was normal. However it shows Samsung Keyboard has unfortunately stopped working every ten to fifteen seconds and will not stop. I tried clearing data and cache of the Samsung keyboard app and that did not work. I tried factory and data reset of the phone as well as wipe partition cache and none of that worked. Any suggestions?? I couldn't do anything so I
managed to use a Bluetooth keyboard to go to play store and download new keyboard app but I'm using my google account for that and I personally don't want him having my account on his phone.
I apologize for all the troubles, I'm trying to help him out and didn't realize I was in over my head with no experience on this.

You'll need to install a custom recovery, use that to wipe the system partition and data reset again then immediately reboot to Download Mode and reinstall the NE5 update.
You sir have been very helpful and I can't thank you enough. I was clueless coming into this thinking I could help my friend effortlessly but that was not the case. I've never had the intentions of rooting a phone or placing a custom mod on one but honestly now I'd like to try it lol!! With your help and this website I was able to fix his phone. I can't thank you guys enough. You're awesome!!!
I apologize up front if this is has been previously asked. I found lots of helpful info on here searching through old threads but being a bit of a luddite I was a bit confused exactly which situation applied to me. I live in China and recently bought a s3 I9300I and attempted to root it using the chainfire method from the video on this site. Odin declared success but when the phone rebooted it just went back to download mode with a message at top saying, "Could not do normal boot, ODIN MODE." Turning it off and on, removing battery and retrying Odin flash produce no results. The most important thing of course is just to get the phone back to functioning but I'd also like it rooted if at all possible. I read that using Odin to install a custom kernel would root it and I would not be at all opposed to a good custom kernel. I read something about a binary counter that may need to be reset but that seemed to require doing something with the actual phone functions which don't seem to work. Odin still recognizes it when I plug it in and attempts to let me redo the rooting but it just shows a progress bar then reboots right back into download mode. Sorry if this is basic stuff but I'm kind of terrified of bricking this thing and am just not sure what the best course of action is here. Thanks for any help you can offer.
Chinese stock firmware is different to the international, there is a special thread in general forum on rooting etc.
Do you have a link to that thread? I have looked and cannot find anything that seems specific to this problem.
Please. Searching for "China" or "Chinese" gets me absolutely no relevant results. If this has already been covered can someone please direct me to the thread. I really need to get this phone working and am at a loss. Thanks.
Hello,
I know, my question is not new for the most of you and I think it is asked over 1000 times. I tried but I can't find the right working answer for me.
I have a problem, with my old Samsung Galaxy SIII GT- I9300 with T-Mobile branding.
Sorry for my english, but I did not found something useful on german websites but much useful in your forum, so I hope you may help.
The Phone is old, so I have no guarantee any more. I got it from a friend and for him it worked very well till now. It started with freezing on pages and the friend tried to recover the device and I think he did something wrong. The device ended up bricked.
Now, when I want to switch on the device it shows a white screen, with grey and black snow everywhere. Only thing I still can do is going in download mode, then it shows:
___________________________________________________________________
odin mode
Product name: GT-I9300
Custom binary download: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
The robot picture
Downloading...
Do not turn off target !!
________________________________________________________________________
The friend who owned the phone said it is broken and buys a new phone.
I am new to modification phones and all things like that and I haven't got a clue what I'm doing, but I'm interested in learning and don't want to give up.
I read and read and read and looked at google and everywhere and the more I looked, the more different advices I found, but I don't know what will work for my device.
There is another problem, since I don't have a windows or Mac machine, I can't use odin. I work with linux, kubuntu 14.04 ( this is another project,I haven't a clue from, but I'm learning for fun) and I just managed to download JOdin3 Causal, working with heimdall-frontend 1.4.0-0.
I tried to flash firmware with one part and firmware with 3 parts, and I always get from Jodin: that the phone is connected, but there is no pit-file.
I added plenty of pit-files I found in the net, but Jodin said the pit-file was corrupt or broken or Jodin shows on top, left side: „running“ but nothing happens for hours.
Can someone help me. I think I need a firmware and the right pit-file for this firmware. What kind of firmware is not interesting for me, I just want to see the device come back to life again.
I found in the internet, that there is still hope, if the phone shows in odin mode a product name.
Because of this I think that my phone isn't scrap jet. Am I right?
Thanks in advance for your replay.

No, your phone is dead. Try the dead boot recovery thread in general forum for a test but you will need a box.

Yes im an idiot but please i need help. I cant find a cwm recovery or any roms to fix this. Please can someone please send me the download for the stock ROM or any ROM. I can't afford to buy yet another phone. I'd appreciate this emergency help. One issue is this phone has several names raven honor ect and on Huawei site when you type in H892L nothing comes up for downloads or drivers. Ive searched web for two days I cant find it. I need someone to get me the drivers rom for it with android 4.4.4 kitkat & explain how to fix it. Julikat73 at gmail
Hello! I recently got a h892l myself. Ive never rooted before and I have been trying to learn as much as I can before rooting. On another forum (howard forums) someone said they rooted with kingo root.
Im sorry, I dont have anyknowledge to assist you, but I wanted to ask, do you know what went wrong? Anything you could offer as far as advice/experience would be very much appreciated- I cant afford another phone either.
I wish you all the best and hope you are able to sort this issue out.
Sent from my HUAWEI H892L using XDA Free mobile app
I recieved an s767vl from a friend who said I can have it but FRP has the device duct taped to the super glued shut system door.
I dropped my Moto e5 down the stairs, no good glass on that device...lmao.
I have tried the sim pin method, the long press on random entry on verification to try and bring up assist, no go. I have tried otg drive but no drop down for file manager, I have tried Odin with firmware replacement, no luck (I dont even know that USB debug or oem unlock are even enabled , cant find out) I am at the point that I am willling to brick and rebrick to see if I can unbrick and have it available to use. I would REALLY like to find custom ROM for it but from what I have researched here i think there are many of us with that desire.
I saw a post where someone was trying to find root and was given a Bricked j7 crown and was able to come through it and start at factory stock with no google account present... a reply in that thread was " now we know there is a way around frp".
but i cant find the thread...lol.. I NEED TO GET INTO THIS PHONE. its my only alternative to having no phone at all Im currently BROKE and recovering from shoulder surgery, wont have any income for a couple more months, Im feeling a bit under the thumb of google nazis.
ANY HELP WOULD BE AWESOME...
I am going to attempt to odin down to 8.0 from pie and see if it helps.. Im going to downstep from odin 3.13 to odin 3.09 to do so as well ... seems 3.13 is all about making google happy
THANKS GUYS .. I LOVE XDA...YOU GUYS ARE THE BOMB
